Welcome to the December issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter !
Speciation analysis is providing important information for a number of different scientific disciplines. We have created short introductions for some of these, namely environmental, food and life sciences. This month, we have added another research field profiting from speciation analysis: material science. These brief summaries provide fast and easy access to relevant information of the application of speciation analysis in these research areas.
Speciation analysis for material science is a bit special with respect to the techniques used. The applied techniques are mainly those for direct speciation analysis, such as molecular spectroscopy and X-ray spectroscopy.
These techniques do not have the sensitivity for ultra-trace analysis, and therefore have some limitations for applications in environmental and life sciences.
Radiopharmaceuticals are used in very low quantities, since it is their high radioactivity that is relevant for their application and not their concentration. That makes their analysis really challenging, which most often is related to radioactivity detection. Unfortunately, such techniques cannot detect the non-radioactive products and impurities. A group of scientists from Münster (Germany) and Graz (Austria) have now developed a method for speciation analysis for novel and established technetium radiopharmaceuticals based on liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with elemental and molecular mass spectrometry. This method eliminates the need for "cold" reference compounds, thereby advancing the characterization of experimental tracers in nuclear medicine.
Such and other possibilities to use the ICP-MS for enhanced analytical systems will be discussed during the Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry taking place in January next year in Tucson, Arizona (see EVISA`s Diary of Events).
We thank you all for your interest and your fidelity and we hope that we can meet your expectation also during the next year.

|
EVISA is keeping you updated with what is going on in speciation analysis. In this section you will find news about the most current research results, about trends, legal issues and information from manufacturers in the field of speciation analysis.
With all the links to further information and publications the News archive is a valuable collection of "hot topics" in speciation analysis. We continuously update even former news with new links and information so that all news are actual all the time.
The role of speciation analysis in material science
Speciation analysis plays a crucial role in material science by providing insights into the distribution and chemical forms of elements within a material.
